OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind.  In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships."  OPSEC is everyone's responsibility. 

DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.  

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Sorry I haven't posted a place for Fort Worth mom's. I kept dreaming that I posted but never did it while I was awake. I have the ideas for this Saturday: The Cup (coffee place on Camp Bowie), Brewed (coffee place by day, beer by night place on Magnolia), or Starbucks at Sundance Square. I'm thinking 2-4? Give me some feedback please.

To all the new Navy moms out there I had sent my son a colored envelope with a card for my sons birthday and he said the didn't give him a hard time just don't make it a habit...The thing with stickers and such is they don't want anything with glitter on it as it will get onto their clothes and they will fail all inspections as glitter  does not easily come off their clothes....If you put stickers on the outside of their envelope they my get teased or extra pt.. it all depends on the drill instructor....I know that boot camp is toughy but I know all you moms and dads will get threw it know that it is just as hard or harder on them as it is us...My son is now in P'Cola in school and loves it. Ya'll can do this Keep the letters going I wrote my son everyday and he said that mail at the end of the night was what he looked forward to  so don't stop the letter.......I hope this helped ya'll a little

Sorry I've been MIA for the last month.  Anyone want to get together the afternoon of 9/27 in Fort Worth?  

Comment by Ruth, Gun's Mom on September 19, 2014 at 9:12pm

V's Mom and Cynthia, I'm one of those Winter Texans that lives in Donna part-time.  Last season I met a Navy mom from Harlingen, and we had a Molly's moms packing party together.  When I get to Palm Shadows in November, there will be a Navy mom from Tennessee staying the winter, too.  We all need to get together!  Find me on facebook please!  Ruth Clayton-Davis

Comment by V's Mom on September 19, 2014 at 7:04pm
